no escsape

So I made this ship, had no idea what to do with it, which happens sometimes, sometimes its the other way around, so thought id have a mess with some of the new brushes I got. it was just the ship and landscape but then I thought putting some poor chap behind a rock might give it a bit more story :0

looking for a new world

I haven’t done many space ship design or paintings for that matter, my first real stab was the other day, this is the second, again built basic grey box ships in max and then used these for a base to paint and texture in Photoshop cc.
